This guide will show you how to set your own Message of the Day on the DedicatedMC.io Panel.

Guide

Step 1: First, you’ll need to go to the DedicatedMC.io Panel and select the server of which you want to change the MOTD of.

Step 2: In the selected server, either go to ‘File Management’ or use your choice for SFTP. A guide on how to use SFTP can be found here.

Step 3: When using the File Manager on the Panel or SFTP, open the file named server.properties.

Step 4: Scroll down tell you find motd=  in the file. Then input your custom MOTD message.

We recommend using MCTools MOTD Creator for easier use and more customization when creating your custom MOTD Message.
